\subsection{Minimal Bad Prefixes}
-%TODO: Given a formula of the form vw^\omega, can we find a n \in \mathbb{N} such that vw^n is a bad prefix?
\emph{NB: this section is not particularly about PLTL. It is better added as 4.4.3.}
Model checking tools, such as NuSMV, often give counterexamples in the form of $vw^\omega$, i.e., a finite prefix with a infinite loop.

\subsection{Past Modalities in LTL}\label{sec:intro}
-% Explain that past Modalities are not necessary for a complete logic
-% Explain that PLTL does make the logic more succinct (Paper 1)
-%TODO: Give example on what kind of things we want to express with PLTL
As mentioned in Remark 5.16, LTL can be extended with \emph{past modalities}.
This section discusses this extension.
-The combination of LTL and Past Modalities is often called \enquote{LTL-Past} or PLTL.
-For the sake of brevity we will use the second (PLTL) to denote this combination.
+The combination of LTL and Past Modalities is often called \enquote{LTL-Past} or PLTL; we will use the second.
When temporal logic was first introduced by Arthur N. Prior in his 1957 book~\cite{Prior1957},
the logic consisted of both past and future modalities.
The complexity of the model problem does not increase with this extension~\citep{Sistla1985},

for which the size of all equivalent LTL formulas is $\Omega\left(2^n\right)$.
Markey achieves this proof by providing a formula that is in exactly this class.
Besides being smaller, PLTL formulas can also be easier to write and understand, as examples below will demonstrate.

For this reason, it is useful to discuss them here.
